‘Man Of Steel 2, Batman Vs Superman’ - Jason Momoa Of 'Game Of Thrones' Has Mystery Role; Sequel Is Virtually The Justice League Movie

Warner Brothers is in a rush. They want to gain on Marvel's lead, since they already have seven movies in their universe already. The continuous additions to the 'Man of Steel' sequel suggests that the title should be 'Justice League' already.

Another actor is reported to join the fray. Jason Momoa who played Khal Drogo in "Game Of Thrones." He is being linked to two possible roles. This was first released in The Hollywood Reporter:

"Jason Momoa is in negotiations to join the cast of the untitled Batman-Superman movie being made by Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment, sources tell The Hollywood Reporter.

Zack Snyder is directing the Man of Steel follow-up, which is quickly turning into a who's who of DC superheroes as Momoa joins Henry Cavill as Superman, Ben Affleck as Batman and Israeli supermodel and relative newcomer Gal Godot as Wonder Woman."

The possible roles are Doomsday, the monster that killed Superman during the "Death Of Superman" arc in the comics. The hint was cited in an Easter Egg referenced in the "Man Of Steel" Blu-Ray Featurette titled "Learn About Krypton." The cryptic message is "We remember those who fell during the Last War...Beware Bertron's curse for he is named Doomsday." 

Bertron, according to DC wikia, is a scientist who performed genetic experiments, the objective of which is to create 'the perfect being.' He chose Krypton as his venue although it was stated that he is not native to that planet.The result of his experiments was 'Doomsday' who eventually lost control and killed Bertron.

The other rumor is that he is being tapped to play The Martian Manhunter. As Schmoes Know reports:

"That's right. Khal Drogo might actually be playing Martian Manhunter. Fitting since he was also up for a similarly looking green character in Marvel's upcoming GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY as Drax the Destroyer."

Most fans worry about shallow character development if all the characters are introduced right away. Director Zack Snyder is more of an action oriented helmsman, and perhaps that is the image they want to project to separate them from Marvel.
